In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
Se te ve agotada de caminar
Descansa en mí muchachita
Bajo tu mirada veo la soledad
Pidiéndote muchachita
Ooh de ojos tristes
Dime lo que haces lejos de tu hogar
Confía en mi muchachita
Cuéntame el motivo que te hace escapar
Lo entenderé muchachita
Ooh uh de ojos tristes
Desahógate en mis brazos
Calma en mí todas tus penas
Y haz que salga la tristeza
Que hay en ti
Bebe un poco de mi vino
Siéntate junto a mi hoguera
Y sonríe nuevamente
Para mí muchachita
Sobre tu semblante nace una sonrisa
Tus ojos brillan muchachita
Sientes un alivio en el corazón
Ya no estás sola muchachita
Ooh uh de ojos tristes
Háblame de tu pasado
Lléname de tu perfume
Quédate esta noche
Amiga junto a mí
Yo también me siento solo
Yo también he caminado
Yo también estoy cansado
Ya de huir muchachita
Desahógate en mis brazos
Calma en mí todas tus penas
Y haz que salga la tristeza
Que hay en ti
Yo también me siento solo
Yo también he caminado
Yo también estoy cansado
Ya de huir muchachita
Descansa en mí muchachita
Bajo tu mirada veo la soledad
Pidiéndote muchachita
Ooh de ojos tristes
Dime lo que haces lejos de tu hogar
Confía en mi muchachita
Cuéntame el motivo que te hace escapar
Lo entenderé muchachita
Ooh uh de ojos tristes
Desahógate en mis brazos
Calma en mí todas tus penas
Y haz que salga la tristeza
Que hay en ti
Bebe un poco de mi vino
Siéntate junto a mi hoguera
Y sonríe nuevamente
Para mí muchachita
Sobre tu semblante nace una sonrisa
Tus ojos brillan muchachita
Sientes un alivio en el corazón
Ya no estás sola muchachita
Ooh uh de ojos tristes
Háblame de tu pasado
Lléname de tu perfume
Quédate esta noche
Amiga junto a mí
Yo también me siento solo
Yo también he caminado
Yo también estoy cansado
Ya de huir muchachita
Desahógate en mis brazos
Calma en mí todas tus penas
Y haz que salga la tristeza
Que hay en ti
Yo también me siento solo
Yo también he caminado
Yo también estoy cansado
Ya de huir muchachita

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Page
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it.
“I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
